The 80/20 factor....a way of living!

The 80/20 factor
Survival depends only on this 20 factor


You would agree with me

that most of us in this world love to have an easy way of living.

We eternally desire to attain the top position

in our workplace most of the time,

not commensurate with the credentials we possess.

We never leave any stone unturned to see that

 we reach a level with which

we could not only command our subordinates

 but also achieve results sitting pretty and glued

to our seat in our cabin.

If you walk into any office,

particularly

the Government / public sector organisations,

 you can easily identify a set of employees

 seriously engrossed in their assignments,

 running here and there with a real intention

 to complete the day's work allotted to them.

You would also witness

another set of employees engaging themselves

 in their personal work, gossip, negotiating with vendors

who easily walk into such organisations

with bundles of saris, shirt and pant bits  etc.,

 for sale,

 unmindful of the customers

who wait for their gracious return to get their work done.

To be precise,

 the first set of staff fall under the 20 percent category

and

the second set form the rest of the 80 per cent staff.

 

Requests and cajoling from their immediate superiors,

a part of whom also fall under the 80 per cent

category to attend to the customers fall on the deaf ears

of this major category

 which defiantly refuses to budge.

Needless to stress most of the offices and service centres survive

only because of the first category of 20 percent

who, though they get frustrated at times,

by virtue of their good qualities continue to work like a bull

and also dutifully take up the work

left incomplete by most of their colleagues.
